WARNING
Hydraulic pumps manufactured by Cembre S.p.A. are developed for use with hydraulic
heads. According to this specific use, they do not need and are not equipped with an oil
non-return safety system.
For this reason, use in applications different from those intended (for example with hy-
draulic jacks, lifting systems or similar) can be dangerous for the operator.
Cembre S.p.A. does not accept any liability arising from the use of its hydraulics pumps
for applications different from those listed in its catalogues or other documentation.
Do not use the pump for purposes other than those intended by Cembre S.p.A..
The operator should concentrate on the work being performed and be careful to maintain
a balanced working position.
Avoid dirty surfaces: dust and sand are a danger to any Electro-hydraulic equipment.
The flexible hydraulic hose supplied should always be used to connect the hydraulic head
to the pump. The hydraulic head should never be directly connected to the pump.
Never connect to a pump hydraulic heads that still contain oil, namely with the ram not
fully retracted; excess oil could cause the pump to malfunction.
Before disconnecting the flexible hose, check that the ram of the head is completely retracted,
in order to ensure that a sufficient quantity of oil is available for subsequent operations.
High pressure flexible hoses are subject to a natural ageing process which can result in
a reduction in performance potentially affecting safety of the operator. As a result their
life span is limited.
In order to ensure safe use of their units, Cembre recommends replacing the hose within
10 years from the date printed on the fittings.
Keep the pump and flexible hose away from naked flames and sources of heat above 70°C.
Before using the pump, check that the flexible hose and couplings are not damaged.
The factory fitted guards must be in place at each end of the flexible hose.
Do not touch the flexible hose when under pressure.
When using the pump, the flexible hose must be uncoiled and laid out straight.
The pump is unsuitable for continuous use and should be allowed to cool down follow-
ing uninterrupted, successive crimping operations; for instance, having exhausted a fully
charged battery in one session, delay battery replacement for a few minutes.
